wow... thats the type of girl you put a ring on her finger quick! And shes a looker too!

And he's a "Congressional staffer" who loves his job. She's got patience to have even lasted through the entire date with him.

If only I were 20 years younger and lived on the east coast. Oh well.

I thought you'd seen a Vector.

I don't want a woman who wants to drive my car. I am fine with the one who tolerates my addiction.

There is a girl in the local autoX club and euro car clubs that is a good drive, SCCA tech inspector, but her husband hates cars.

She calls him "the wife"

I have seen a Vector.

My wife LOVE's auto-xing, and is looking forward to having the Corvette prepped to run this season. It remains to be seen who will stay home to attend our soon to arrive "Junior" while the other proceeds to chew up some RA1's.

They're out there: automotive events have become a part of our quality time together.

No need to leave junior behind -- my kids have been attending events since birth. There's always willing hands to help out.

What's the Vector Victor?

"EPD - Engineering Personality Disorder". Nice!

Trust me when I say: datign a girl who's really into cars can be a double-edged sword...

LMAO!

So she is very attractive, has a great job, loves cars, and is less than 2 hours from me?

Yeah...even if I did meet her. Dream on.

I have a friend who is into Technology and video games. SO is his wife. thier house is like a technology museum. And they are always broke.

imagine if my wife had the same interest as I in cars? we would always be out of money...

Tell me you wouldn't be happy?

My wife's planning on an Elise in the future -- I'm pretty lucky that way. She may even let me drive it.

DING! DING! DING! DING!

And you never get to work on your own cars...

I thought that was a cool column. Usually im not at all interested in stuff like that, but it was a good read. Both seemed honest and intelligent, didnt seem TOO staged or contrived. Good link.

If you have a wife and a family and don't include them in 'your cars' you're going to have a wife who resents the time you aren't spending with 'your family'

My girlfriend and i were standing towards the end of the back straight at Road Atlanta, watching final practice for the ALMS P1/P2 class when she saw the Peugeot LMP car doing about 180mph coming towards her. She looked at me and i said" Could i race?"

She said "NO!!!"

Tell her you're buying a motorcycle because the steel safey cage, seatbelts, safety devices, and fire extinguishers a racecar provides is too restrictive, she'll see the light, at least my wife did...

No way. I don't want a woman that might be right telling me what I've just done wrong.

Now that's the first logical argument against her I've heard!

hahaha! BTDT. My wife loves cars and can work on them. Yeah, those "I told you you should have done it that way to start with" bonding moments are priceless. Priceless, I tell you!
